I have a network of sites that use ValueClick media banner ads. So far today every single banner has been a PSA (public service ad). The ads have been running fine for weeks/months, but all of a sudden I get only PSA ads. Anyone else notice this?
It seems fine with me. I checked mine and they seemed alright. Unless it is happening now and again. Also, have you tried including an alternative so that you don't serve PSA ads but you actual show a default ad instead. This is what I do, you will then earn more this way.
Yes, it seems to have solved itself. I have a defaults setup for the sites that I have Casale Media on, but not ValueClick media. I could never figure out how to add a default. I finally found it under the tutorials and will submit my sites on ValueClick to Casale. EDIT: How do I get a link and banner url from Casale to enter into ValueClick media as a default? Casale only gives a long Javascript code and a SINGLE default url, not two.
I am having only PSA's and Smileys ads on ValueClick My income from them today is around 5% of what used to be It started about 4 or 5 hours ago
I belive you have to open up an editor like notpad and then insert the casale scirpt in there and save it as something. Make sure you save it with a .js file extension Once you have done that you have to upload that file to your server, then you have to insert the url of where that file is located into the ValueClickMedia site in the right url format so they are both the same formats. Watch when you do defaults with the skyscraper. It happens either when you default to casale or valueclick. I don't know which way around it is, but with one of the networks they have their skyscraper banner ad max width at 120px whereas the other next allows 120px and 160px width and if you default with one of them, it will make the defaulted ads show up with 40px of the width missing. I noticed that after a few days and had to change it.
